Feeling nostalgic? Mariah Carey posts sentimental flashback snap of her with ex Bryan Tanaka...more than a month after calling it quits

The 47-year-old on Friday posted a shot to Instagram in which she's posed with her ex-boyfriend Bryan Tanaka, 33, as the two sipped out of the same chocolate shake.

She captioned the image #fbf, meaning Flashback Friday, and it was not immediately clear if the Someday singer was in a nostalgic mood or if there could be a rekindling of the five-month romance, which ended about five weeks ago.

Sweet flashback: Mariah Carey, 47, posted this shot with ex Bryan Tanaka, 33, about five weeks after the two split ways in April

At the time, reports of the breakup pointed to a number of issues, including Tanaka's spendthrift habits, in addition to his burning jealousy over her cordial relationship with ex-husband Nick Cannon, the father of her six-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan.

'Mariah ended it - everyone hoped that she would,' a source told People in April. 'She has better things to focus on ... she is focusing on her kids and new music.'

The Vision Of Love singer, People reported last month, called things off with the dancer, some 14 years her junior, who she began working with more than 10 years ago when he was on her 2006 tour, Adventures of Mimi.

While the pair's relationship was chronicled on both of their Instagram accounts and the E! series Mariah’s World, the Huntington, New York native demurred when quizzed about the relationship by the AP in February.

'I just don’t feel comfortable talking about my personal life,' said Carey, referring to Tanaka in saying, 'Me and my boyfriend don’t want to do that.'

But the duo ran into issues when Mariah posed amicably with Cannon during the Kids’ Choice Awards March 11, leading Tanaka feeling 'disrespected' by the ordeal, insiders told TMZ.
